It was only $1.85 briefly when the economy and demand collapsed under Bush's watch.

Under the 'Red Line' is good and above that red line is bad. This is why Obama should not be able ton use bog words like red line. For a short time the price of gas spliked under Bush. For a long time the price of everything has spiked and stayed spike under the present Liar n Thief.

Since the Democrats FDR killed the gold std and Declared a State of Emergency almost no one alive has seen real money.

Go on pretending things are just fine.

Looks like the USA is a major oil exporter. There's no need for gas to remain this high.

U.S. exported more gasoline than imported last year

read gore's book ;he if he had been elected intended to tax it to European levels in cost to consumers.Obama has just made sure we pay higher transport fees for rial transpost and Canadian oil and continued buying from others while not exporting what we could have started already in finished product. Instead we are getting ready to sell one of his special interest car makers for what we can get back in Fisher loan.

Oil is bought and sold on the world markets. Just ask those nice oil company shareholders if they'd mind making less money so Americans could have cheaper gas. I'm sure they'd gladly oblige.
